Chapter 680: Preparing to Enter the Great Thousand World

Time flew by, and more than a year had passed since Xiao Ze's grand wedding. During this time, he balanced cultivation with traveling across the Dou Qi Continent alongside Xun'er and his other four wives, making up for the time lost to his relentless pursuit of strength.

Surprisingly, the greatest changes brought about by Xiao Ze's actions didn't stem from the political upheavals among factions but rather from the revolution in the alchemy world.

In the remote lands of the Northwest Continent, an elderly man with snow white hair and beard walked along a mountain trail, accompanied by a small, delicate girl. Despite her clean appearance, traces of weariness showed in her expression, yet she never once complained, keeping close to the elder.

Reaching a hilltop, they gazed into the distance, where a patch of dark earth came into view. The elder's eyes filled with excitement.

"Have we finally arrived? The legendary inheritance of the Origin Emperor's alchemy!"

Breathing a deep sigh of relief, the elder knelt slightly to speak to the girl with a gentle tone.

"Xiao Lingxuan, your grandfather once lacked the means to find you a teacher in alchemy. But now, with the great Origin Emperor's inheritance, we no longer have to beg those haughty and obstinate alchemists."

"I can finally ensure your talent is not wasted."

The little girl's big, bright eyes met the elder's, and she nodded solemnly. "Don't worry, Grandpa. I will definitely earn the Origin Emperor's alchemy inheritance!"

The elder smiled with pride, taking her hand as they moved toward the dark earth.

Legends told of the Origin Emperor's inheritance tree on the Northwest Continent's black soil, where anyone with the potential to become an alchemist could receive guidance.

For centuries, the scarcity of alchemists on the Dou Qi Continent was attributed to the stringent requirements: a fire attribute with traces of wood energy and exceptional spiritual perception.

Even those with the natural qualifications to become alchemists faced challenges in their development. Without guidance, resources, or proper instruction, many talents were left unfulfilled.

Alchemy required more than reading formulas or studying notes; it demanded hands on teaching to master soul control, fire manipulation, and ingredient refinement tasks often beyond the reach of even talented aspirants without a dedicated teacher.

With Xiao Ze's inheritance tree, these barriers were obliterated.

As an Elder Dou Emperor, Xiao Ze wielded abilities beyond mortal comprehension. By utilizing the roots of the Origin Tree, he could effortlessly spread his knowledge across the continent.

Through these roots, he projected a fraction of his Origin Emperor Flame across the Dou Qi Continent. Even diluted to an infinitesimal degree, the flame's properties far surpassed ordinary Heavenly Flames.

Arriving at the edge of the dark soil, the elder and Xiao Lingxuan found a massive city sprawling ahead. Recognizing it as Tianmeng City, the elder sighed in relief. "We're close to the inheritance tree now."

Joined by others on similar journeys, they proceeded toward their destination. Soon, they beheld an awe inspiring sight: a colossal golden tree towering into the heavens, radiating golden light that illuminated the entire region. Beneath its canopy lay an orderly complex of structures, bustling with alchemists.

In this domain, no one dared to cause trouble.

Unlike the arrogant alchemists the elder had encountered in the past, these individuals carried themselves with humility. The Origin Emperor's teachings had reshaped their understanding of alchemy, humbling even the proudest practitioners.

The elder approached the tree with reverence, listening carefully to the guidelines shared by its keepers before sending Xiao Lingxuan into one of the small chambers beneath the tree.

Inside another chamber, a black robed alchemist placed several seeds on a jade platform. Golden green flames danced across the surface as he infused the fire with Dou Qi, coaxing the seeds to grow.

To his amazement, the seeds sprouted into fully mature medicinal herbs within moments.

"Incredible! Even a projection of the Origin Emperor Flame has the same effect as the Life Spirit Flame, ranked fifth on the Heavenly Flame list. It can catalyze the growth of rare herbs!"

However, the process soon drained his Dou Qi, leaving him pale and exhausted.

"This flame is a voracious consumer of Dou Qi. Next time, I'll need to bring some fellow alchemists to share the burden," he muttered, watching the dissipating flames with awe.

For alchemists like him, who had risen from humble beginnings, the inheritance tree offered unparalleled opportunities. Its projection flames served as an initial fire for beginners, a catalyst for materials, and a guide for those seeking to refine their techniques.

Having established this system, Xiao Ze regarded it as his lasting contribution to the Dou Qi Continent. As he prepared for his departure, he returned to Zhongzhou and entered the Xiao Realm, a space of his own creation.

After traveling most of the continent with his wives, Xiao Ze realized that his cultivation on the Dou Qi Continent had reached a bottleneck. To advance further, he needed to venture into the Great Thousand World.

His Origin Space, now a fully developed sub dimension, provided the perfect vehicle to traverse the boundaries between worlds. With the Dou Qi Continent's sealed pathways to the Great Thousand World, Xiao Ze planned to use an alternate sub dimensional route to begin his journey.
